Let’s solve this logic puzzle step by step. We have 4 people (Janellie, Kylie, Preston, Taryn), 4 TV shows (Cheers, Dallas, Falcon Crest, The Simpsons), 4 lakes (Lake Geneva, Lake Tanganyika, Lake Titicaca, Lake Victoria), and 4 reservation times (5:30pm, 7:00pm, 8:00pm, 8:30pm). Each person has one unique value in each category — no repeats.

We’ll use the clues to fill in a grid or table mentally (or on paper) until everything fits.

---

Clue 8: “The person with a reservation at 8:30pm is Preston.”
→ So Preston = 8:30pm

Clue 3: “Either the person with a reservation at 5:30pm or the person with a reservation at 8:00pm lives on the Lake Tanganyika shoreline.”
→ So Lake Tanganyika is either 5:30pm OR 8:00pm.

Clue 2: “Taryn doesn’t own a home on Lake Tanganyika or Lake Geneva.”
→ Taryn ≠ Lake Tanganyika, Taryn ≠ Lake Geneva → So Taryn must be on Lake Titicaca or Lake Victoria.

Clue 1: “Of the person who watched The Simpsons and the person who watched Cheers, one lives on the Lake Victoria shoreline and the other has the 7:00pm reservation.”
→ So {Simpsons, Cheers} ↔ {Lake Victoria, 7:00pm} — meaning one of them is at Lake Victoria, the other at 7:00pm. Not both same person.

Clue 5: “The person who lives on the banks of Lake Victoria didn’t watch Cheers.”
→ Lake Victoria ≠ Cheers → So from Clue 1, since one of Simpsons/Cheers is at Lake Victoria, and it can’t be Cheers, then Simpsons = Lake Victoria, and therefore Cheers = 7:00pm

So now we know:
- Simpsons → Lake Victoria
- Cheers → 7:00pm

Also from Clue 1: that matches — one is at Lake Victoria (Simpsons), other at 7:00pm (Cheers).

Clue 6: “The person who watched Dallas has an earlier reservation than the person who watched Cheers.”
→ Dallas < 7:00pm → So Dallas must be at 5:30pm (only time before 7:00pm)

So:
- Dallas → 5:30pm

Clue 7: “The person who watched Dallas has an earlier reservation than Taryn.”
→ Dallas (5:30pm) < Taryn → So Taryn cannot be 5:30pm → Taryn is 7:00pm, 8:00pm, or 8:30pm.

But wait — we already have:
- Cheers → 7:00pm
- Preston → 8:30pm
- Dallas → 5:30pm

So remaining time for Taryn? Only 8:00pm left? Let’s check:

Times:
- 5:30pm → Dallas
- 7:00pm → Cheers
- 8:30pm → Preston
→ So only 8:00pm left for someone else.

Taryn must be after 5:30pm → so could be 7:00, 8:00, or 8:30.

But 7:00pm is taken by Cheers → if Taryn watched Cheers, that’s possible? Wait — let’s see.

Actually, we don’t yet know who watches what except:
- Dallas → 5:30pm
- Cheers → 7:00pm
- Simpsons → Lake Victoria

And Preston → 8:30pm

Now, clue 4: “The person who lives on the banks of Lake Victoria is Janellie.”
→ Janellie = Lake Victoria → and from above, Lake Victoria = Simpsons → so Janellie = Simpsons

So:
- Janellie → Lake Victoria → Simpsons

Now, back to Taryn.

Taryn ≠ Lake Tanganyika, ≠ Lake Geneva → so Taryn = Lake Titicaca or Lake Victoria.

But Lake Victoria = Janellie → so Taryn ≠ Lake Victoria → therefore Taryn = Lake Titicaca

So:
- Taryn → Lake Titicaca

Now, times:

We have:
- 5:30pm → Dallas
- 7:00pm → Cheers
- 8:30pm → Preston
→ So 8:00pm is unassigned.

Who is left? People: Janellie, Kylie, Preston, Taryn

Preston → 8:30pm

Janellie → ? time

Kylie → ? time

Taryn → ? time

Dallas → 5:30pm → whoever that is

Cheers → 7:00pm → whoever that is

Simpsons → Janellie → so Janellie ≠ Dallas, ≠ Cheers → so Janellie must be at 8:00pm or 8:30pm? But 8:30pm is Preston → so Janellie = 8:00pm?

Wait — let’s list assignments so far:

People:
- Janellie → Lake Victoria → Simpsons → time?
- Kylie → ?
- Preston → 8:30pm → ? show, ? lake
- Taryn → Lake Titicaca → ? show, ? time

Shows:
- Dallas → 5:30pm
- Cheers → 7:00pm
- Simpsons → Janellie
→ So Falcon Crest is left.

Lakes:
- Lake Victoria → Janellie
- Lake Titicaca → Taryn
- Lake Tanganyika → ? (must be 5:30 or 8:00 per clue 3)
- Lake Geneva → ?

From clue 3: Lake Tanganyika is either 5:30pm or 8:00pm.

We have:
- 5:30pm → Dallas
- 8:00pm → ???

If Lake Tanganyika is 5:30pm, then Dallas watcher lives there.

If Lake Tanganyika is 8:00pm, then whoever is at 8:00pm lives there.

Now, who is at 5:30pm? Someone who watches Dallas.

Who is at 7:00pm? Someone who watches Cheers.

Who is at 8:30pm? Preston.

Who is at 8:00pm? Must be Janellie? Because:

Janellie → Simpsons → not Dallas (5:30), not Cheers (7:00), not Preston (8:30) → so yes, Janellie = 8:00pm

So:
- Janellie → 8:00pm → Simpsons → Lake Victoria

Then Taryn must be at 7:00pm? But 7:00pm is Cheers → so Taryn = Cheers?

Check clue 7: Dallas (5:30) < Taryn → yes, 5:30 < 7:00 → OK.

Also, Taryn ≠ Lake Tanganyika, ≠ Lake Geneva → we assigned her Lake Titicaca → good.

So Taryn → 7:00pm → Cheers → Lake Titicaca

Now, who is at 5:30pm? Watches Dallas.

Remaining people: Kylie and Preston.

Preston is at 8:30pm → so 5:30pm must be Kylie.

So:
- Kylie → 5:30pm → Dallas → ? lake

Now, lakes left: Lake Geneva and Lake Tanganyika.

Clue 3: Lake Tanganyika is either 5:30pm or 8:00pm.

8:00pm is Janellie → Lake Victoria → so not Tanganyika.

Therefore, Lake Tanganyika must be 5:30pm → so Kylie → Lake Tanganyika

Then last lake: Lake Geneva → must go to Preston (8:30pm)

Now, shows left: Falcon Crest → must go to Preston (since others are taken: Dallas-Kylie, Cheers-Taryn, Simpsons-Janellie)

So Preston → 8:30pm → Falcon Crest → Lake Geneva

Now check all clues:

Clue 1: Simpsons (Janellie, Lake Victoria) and Cheers (Taryn, 7:00pm) → one at Lake Victoria, one at 7:00pm → ✔️

Clue 2: Taryn ≠ Tanganyika or Geneva → she’s at Titicaca → ✔️

Clue 3: Tanganyika is at 5:30pm (Kylie) → ✔️

Clue 4: Lake Victoria = Janellie → ✔️

Clue 5: Lake Victoria (Janellie) didn’t watch Cheers → she watched Simpsons → ✔️

Clue 6: Dallas (5:30) < Cheers (7:00) → ✔️

Clue 7: Dallas (5:30) < Taryn (7:00) → ✔️

Clue 8: 8:30pm = Preston → ✔️

All clues satisfied!
